I mean, the article is pretty long, but it’s pretty simple:

• Don’t use AI of any sort to be a source for an answer to your question.

• Do use Wikipedia and check the sources referenced.

• If not on Wikipedia, check a trusted source with a relatively long publishing history and known ownership. (this doesn’t mean only stuff like The New York Times… Boing Boing for example has been around for a long, long time)

LLMs literally have to frame of reference to real life except the text they’ve ingested and they have no way to know which text is true or not. To an LLM, Alex Jones is just as valid a source as Mother Jones.

Am I, or is that how you’re choosing to read it?

Did you forget we’re talking about a fucking twitter replacement, not the fucking election?

Jesus fucking Christ. I saw what was coming and even though she was far from my choice, I did what I thought mattered more than how I personally felt. Get over yourself, dude. I can look at things and have an opinion and still choose to go with what matters when literal Nazis are on the other side of the equation. Like I said, it’s literally not my fault that more than half the country was too fucking dumb to clock that because they’d been fed the same bullshit for decades.

Ah yes, notable for codifying and expanding Bush’s drone war and then… somehow getting a Peace Prize for that?

Also, we can literally blame the rise and prominence of Tom Homan on Obama. So should be still really be cheering for Obama at all, ever?

Can we fuck off with this pretending that these fucks didn’t enable the situation we’re now literally in? How could we expect our government to go after Trumps crimes when Obama said “we need to look forward, not backward” in respect to going after war crimes?

Further, can we stop pretending that one corporate social media is better than another corporate social media. Jay Graber talks good game, but so did Zuckerberg, Musk, and Dorsey before they got their billions. You’re just building another billionaire who will turn on you.

Reminder, Bluesky owes literally millions to Blockchain Capital, a venture capital firm. They will have to pay that money back somehow. The enshittification will happen. And I’m sick of the weak loser excuse “We will just move to another shitty corporation with another shitty corporate social media service when this one doesn’t work out.” Cool, and you’ll mint more billionaires each time, you jabronis.

That’s half the reason people use it.

That half the reason is only for weird celebrity worshipping jackasses.

To be fair I was really lazy and just grabbed the first one I saw with “not” inserted into it.

Because yes you are correct.

Or maybe things in between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz ARE being used, but for different things that would break if WiFi started to use them, and if so, what are those things?

Warning, this is an extremely large image. You will need to open it in it’s own window and zoom in.

Once you have opened it in a new window, I’m sure you will be able to tell that the entire radio frequency spectrum is absolutely fucking packed to the gills. It’s all accounted for, everything from 3kHz to 300 GHz.

Also, 2.4GHz is the frequency put out by microwave ovens, so they actually do interfere with 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

Finally, this is just how the US allocates the radio spectrum. Every country actually has their own different allocation system. If I recall correctly, Wi-Fi bands in the UK are slightly different.

EDIT: Actually, just noticing that this is actually 22 years out of date, since it’s from 2003 (bottom left of image). Things have been changed around and re-allocated several times since then, but you get the idea. There’s a lot of groups who want access to these frequencies. Government agencies, military communications, space exploration, satellite communications, cellular telephone service, television broadcasting, civilian band radio, wi-fi and so on.

The worm one was Noby Noby Boy.

I think it’s interesting to note here that he was the Director of the first two Katamaris, Director/Designer of Noby Noby Boy, but from there on out is just a designer. I think it shows that not only does he want to work with other people but that he doesn’t necessarily want full creative control as much as he values the input from others in creative ideas.

Which also makes it a little frustrating that all the games are still marketed as “From the Creator of Katamari Damacy!” while it seems like he’s just another designer on a team and he’s happy with that. More like the businesses use him as a marketing gimmick, maybe?

The soundtrack alone is still a must-play for me.

This one seems like it’s going to have a similarly great soundtrack.

I want to wad you up into my life

Let’s lump up to make a single star in the sky

someone

Oh you mean Match Group?

It’s AshleyMadison all over again, shocker.

I am so hyped for this weird game!

Centering a service animal is dope!

I was literally about to come into this thread to say the same.

but doesn’t seem to know what it does

Doesn’t seem to know what it does, doesn’t seem to know how it works, etc.

He’s fucking illiterate and has been rewarded handsomely for being fucking illiterate. It’s why he hates education so much.

It’s part of why he won’t type at a computer and even needs a secretary to type most of his tweets for him. Because he is functionally fucking illiterate. Also the whole misogynistic 1940-80s “typing is women’s work” horseshit.

I’m having trouble finding it but I remember a foreign travel warning ad specifically for Florida in relation to their gun laws and things like open carry and castle doctrine. It even had a graphic with Florida itself done up to look like a gun. It was to warn people “hey you could get shot by some random asshat and it’s legal for them to do in Florida.”

This is also why (white) Boomers struggle to understand how it got so bad. They literally lived in a period where you could often count on and trust your boss.

“You’re just not voting hard enough!”

just want to be safe and raise their kids

If they really cared about that, maybe they could have tried harder to prevent this from happening in their home country, yeah?

That’s such a cop out. “I just want to raise my family in peace” but not enough to work to create a peaceful society for them. Americans are so god damned selfish and thoughtless about anyone’s future but their own.

To be fair, a non-insignificant amount of the men under thirty think things are so bad because the Nazis aren’t taking over fast enough.

Gotcha, fuck the poor, they can die under Nazis. Thanks for your valuable input.

I would like to point out that all the people with halfway decent politics leaving is only going to accelerate how bad things are in the US. You get that, right?
